The SSK Saga

The amount of single strand knots I have is absurd. I need to trim my hair more regularly. In fact, I need to trim off a good amount, but I refuse. I think the fact that I bun it while it’s wet contributes to the ssk’s. Ugh!

This weekend I blow dried my hair after I washed it. I didn’t blow dry it straight, just enough to dry my hair because I had to leave the house soon. Leaving the house with wet hair in this weather is a formula for trouble. It’s much easier to work with my hair when it’s blow dried. In addition, I use less gel.

I’m not sure that this will become an every week routine, but hey… you never know.

This has been my go-to style. Not the best shot, but you get the idea. I’ve posted pics before of it done on wet hair.

Quick & Easy

What had happened was… I was planning to leave my twists in for another week, but on Sunday I got up to go to church and messing with my hair caused me to be late for church.

I realized that the twists are cool, but they still need to be styled somewhat. That is something that I can not commit to doing during the week, so I went back to my trusty bun. The most I do with my hair during the week in the morning is smooth down my edges. I do my bun and gel down the front from the night before. Leaving at the crack of dawn is no joke and to be honest, those few extra minutes of sleep are more important than my hair. =)

Remember my puff in August?
